Someone at this table did it.
Fictional cold cases, built to be solved. Print the file, spread out the evidence and close the case — solo, on date night or with friends.
The Last Out
June 1998. After a home game at Lantern Park, the general manager of the Wexhaven Lamplighters is found at the bottom of the office stairs. The police call it a fall and close the file in a week.
Now an old microcassette has turned up, and the county cold case unit has reopened the file. That’s you.

Stuck? The solution booklet gives a nudge, then a strong hint, then the answer, without spoiling the rest.
Solved by reasoning, not guessing.
- 01Every clue that matters is in the file. No internet, apps or QR codes.
- 02Every timeline is checked for contradictions, and every case is play-tested.
- 03Every case is fictional: no real crimes, no real people and no graphic images.
